A good day, but a long 'un! Nice to see you all again
Will pick up pics from mr caine tomorrow, and post them so Jacko has a visual record of his mods - to go with the scars ;):D
You saw it took me 2 hours to get to my parent's house :eek: :( Not helped by cretins doing 45 mph down windy country lanes with lots of traffic coming the other way! :rolleyes: According to multimap it's about 80 miles from Jacko's to their place :eek: :eek: so no wonder it took ages lol. I'd have guessed about 40 miles, what do I know :D
Coming back it took 3 hours to do about 170 miles :( All fairly slow until you get down to Gloucester, then I could open it up a little across Birdlip :D And I got a flat battery - left the car with its sidelights on because they live up a narrow unlit country lane and I had to park on the road - woulda thought the battery could cope with running sideys for 2 hours, but apparently not lol.
Btw Jacko - Dad thought I was really strange coming up to Cov to see your new zorst and watch you fit the obx....then i showed him the photos of billing and the rr day....so i think he understands a little better now :D
Sozz to burble on (tho' apparently I do lol) - just winding down enough to go to sleep. Will get pics out here tomorrow if mr c does his bit - I'll send the originals (hi-res) to you as well jacko, if you want :)
